Psalms

116:1I love the LORD, for he heard my voice; he heard my cry for mercy.
116:2Because he turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live.
116:3The cords of death entangled me, the anguish of the grave came upon me; I was overcome by trouble and sorrow.
116:4Then I called on the name of the LORD: "O LORD, save me!"
116:5The LORD is gracious and righteous; our God is full of compassion.
116:6The LORD protects the simplehearted; when I was in great need, he saved me.
116:7Be at rest once more, O my soul, for the LORD has been good to you.
116:8For you, O LORD, have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling,
116:9that I may walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
116:10I believed; therefore I said, "I am greatly afflicted."
116:11And in my dismay I said, "All men are liars."
116:12How can I repay the LORD for all his goodness to me?
116:13I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD.
116:14I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people.
116:15Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.
116:16O LORD, truly I am your servant; I am your servant, the son of your maidservant; you have freed me from my chains.
116:17I will sacrifice a thank offering to you and call on the name of the LORD.
116:18I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people,
116:19in the courts of the house of the LORD--in your midst, O Jerusalem. Praise the LORD.
